Going after guns? All they are going to do is get another gun. Put them in jail for armed robbery. They will rob you without a gun.

I applaud the Oakland PD for doing whatever they can, but none of this will matter if our DA and those clowns in political power that runs CA is just going to let them go.

Show their faces!!! Bring back public shaming!!! Shame, shame, shame👊🏻

Arrest is only a fourth of the process. Now you need to get DA Price to prosecute. Get judges to find them guilty and serve max sentences. Get the governor to not release them early. I would be surprised if the DA actually prosecute them.

The Oakland judicial system is a JOKE. Congratulations! Give all involved in reducing crime a lollipop 🍭. They deserve it.

If only they could keep them in jail for more than 15 minutes.

Oaklands mayor had nothing to do with the arrests, she took off on vacation while her city continues to fall apart. thanks to the PD officers who are doing their best to do their jobs.

So how many of those gang members passed a purchase background check, paid taxes on their guns and bullets, registered their weapons and passed a CCW background check?

pamela price will not press enhancement charges against black and brown communities who have been devastated

[tpolerex]

This just in: D.A. Auntie Pamela Price to the rescue, none of her violent, serial criminal nephews shall ever be charged with serious felonies, all will be released with a PR bond to continue with their self-reparations however they see fit to obtain them. Scheduled trials, months in the future will be shuffled away along with even the misdemeanor charges. Criminality wins again if you are of the protected demographic.

means nothing until you lock the animals up and keep them there

[cleenlivin]

Arrest and a DA that lets term right out. Big Whoop!

[meatpopsicle]

Only a dozen guns? That's like a small collection in the Midwest.

[greggreg]

Good that they’re finally doing some thing in Oakland things are super out of control

[tomofnorthcal]

Hire more cops and fire the legislature.

[Lora-G]

This is some big deal for her😂 we citizens have been waiting for ACTION not platitudes for YEARS😢 "we are unafraid" and so are the gang bangers. No more grandstanding! Stop talking and ACT!

[kalima]

Now hold all 10 without bail. Charge the juvenile as an adult and hit them with enhancements with gun weapon charges. Show up at court and identify them for all to see on the news.

Congratulations you almost got a drop in the bucket 😂.
